Mando Mania Week 4 continued the trend of Hasbro Black Series & Vintage reveals and again they are themed around last year's The Book of Boba Fett Disney+ series rather than the current 3rd Season of The Mandalorian.
This week's Black Series reveal was a look at a previously confirmed Pipeline reveal, the Pyke Soldier. This one will include a blaster and a blaster rifle. It will be a general release, but again this has a Spring 2024 arrival date and is likely part of the same wave as week 3's reveal of the Tusken Chieftain
The Vintage Collection will get another 4-figure army builder set, this time the Tusken Raiders. The set features three differently presented Tusken Raiders and the Tusken Chieftain. The set also features appropriate weaponry including Cycler Rifles and Gaffi sticks - with a staff for the Chief. This set is a shared exclusive between Shop Disney and Hasbro Pulse. It is live for pre-orders as of the 29th of March with an Autumn 2024 release.
Other reveals included Yoda's lightsaber in the lightsaber forge role play line. There are a couple of new Grogu's with a porcelain statue and a Target US exclusive plush Grogu. Two new soup bars themed around the Mandalorian will be hitting shelves in a gift set from Dr. Squatch. And finally, Star Wars The Old Republic video game will be receiving a Mandalorian Nomad Armor add-on as part of Game Update 7.2.1.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
